Expenditure: £147,302

Most items of expenditure were costs relating to the actual venue and included accommodation, AV equipment and a marquee for exhibitors. Prior to the event, all available bedrooms at the University were booked and so some speakers and staff members had to be accommodated off-site. Enabling people with children to fully participate required extensive childcare provision and those on no or low income were helped to attend with travel bursaries and a fee minibus service. The planning costs included the Conference Organiser, UKC development costs and the steering group.
